Texas Trash Talk
The Texas Department of Transportation have been cracking down on those who litter in Texas. According to their research, approximately 435 million pieces of visible litter accumulate on Texas roadways each year. Fines will range from $500 to $2000 depending on what you throw out. One in four Texans admits to littering within the past year. Oh, and they’re also good at talking trash. Don’t mess with Texas, or you’ll pay the price.
Texas Sports
Texas is home to the 8th Wonder of the World, The Astrodome. This was the world’s first domed stadium built in 1965, and was home to Muhammad Ali matches in his prime. Then you’ve got Jerry World which is the stadium of the Cowboys. It is the world’s largest column free enclosed space and has the world’s 4th largest display screen. Texas is also home to one of the greatest pitchers to ever play baseball – Nolan Ryan. Nolan is known for his no hitters and also for whooping Robin Ventura after he charged the mound in 1993. Don’t mess with Nolan Ryan and don’t mess with Texas.
Remember the Alamo
The historic battle against impossible odds that gave Texas their independence. We have to remember the heroic men and women that fought and paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. On April 21, 1836 about 800 Texans defeated Santa Anna’s Mexican troop of 1,500 men near present day Houston. This ensured that there would be no question about Texas’ Independence. Remember the Alamo, and remember not to mess with Texas!
Badass Texas Biker Gangs
Texas is home to some of the most brutal motorcycle clubs in the US. You may remember the famous shootout in Waco, Texas back in May 2015 that caused 170 people to be arrested and left many dead. It was said to be the worst shootout in the history of Waco. The Bandidos Motorcycle Club, The Cossacks, and the Scimitars among the largest involved. They are not afraid of anyone and will do anything for the fame and love of their family. Don’t mess with Texas biker gangs.
Chuck Norris: Walker Texas Ranger
